* trace: introduce a formal group name for trace eventsDaniel P. Berrange2016-10-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The declarations in the generated-tracers.h file are assuming there's only ever going to be one instance of this header, as they are not namespaced. When we have one header per event group, if a single source file needs to include multiple sets of trace events, the symbols will all clash. This change thus introduces a '--group NAME' arg to the 'tracetool' program. This will cause all the symbols in the generated header files to be given a unique namespace. If no group is given, the group name 'common' is used, which is suitable for the current usage where there is only one global trace-events file used for code generation.

* trace: remove duplicate control.h includes in generated-tracers.hDaniel P. Berrange2016-10-121-1/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | The format/h.py file adds an include for control.h to generated-tracers.h. ftrace, log and syslog, then add more duplicate includes for control.h.

* trace: Conditionally trace events based on their per-vCPU stateLluís Vilanova2016-07-181-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | Events with the 'vcpu' property are conditionally emitted according to their per-vCPU state. Other events are emitted normally based on their global tracing state. Note that the per-vCPU condition check applies to all tracing backends.

* trace: Add ftrace tracing backendEiichi Tsukata2013-05-031-0/+54
This patch adds a ftrace tracing backend which sends trace event to ftrace marker file. You can effectively compare qemu trace data and kernel(especially, kvm.ko when using KVM) trace data. The ftrace backend is restricted to Linux only. To try out the ftrace backend: $ ./configure --trace-backend=ftrace $ make if you use KVM, enable kvm events in ftrace: # sudo echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kvm/enable After running qemu by root user, you can get the trace: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Signed-off-by: Eiichi Tsukata <eiichi.tsukata.xh@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
